Department Overview
The Building, Planning and Zoning Department assists the city by providing for orderly growth, planning for appropriate land use, the preservation of resources for the future, and enforcement of codes. The planning director serves as the staff liaison for the Planning Commission and the Board of Zoning Appeals. Staff administers the Comprehensive Plan and zoning and subdivision regulations. The planning department coordinates and manages implementation and revision for the comprehensive plan and the Capital Improvement Plan.
